Looking fab as usual dragonette! And can I tell you how jealous I am that you went to a 49er game? I'm from the SF bay area and I haven't been to a game this season. Anyway, go Niners!

Go Niners! The new bf is a HUGE Niners fan and basically gets all the tickets LOL. We are going to Atlanta this weekend! He says Superbowl is too expensive though!

In other news... My Taylor Harness is out for delivery today! I am excited!

 

[dragonette]

Im going to have to get those red carmen's too! They will be my Valentine's present Dang that dragonette!

I have been naught and won 3 auctions on ebay this week One Frye harness in Olive i have been trying to hunt down for 7 months in my size so yay!!! A Frye Campus in Bananna because, I dont have a pair of Campus and for the price it was too good to pass up a BNIB pair. The same with a Villager pair. I dont know how im going to sneak all these in

Teehee! You won't regret getting them! They were my Christmas pressie!

Congrats on all your new Frye scores! Can't wait to see them!

Thanks jailnurse93, dragonette and Collie5! I am so glad I posted pics here, now I see what you guys are saying. Glad that I get to enjoy a great quality boots by wearing them rather than keeping them in the closet. Thanks Matt for starting a great thread! dragonette love those burnt red boots you have, super hot!

Thank you dear! Pls keep posting pics!

Do you guys/gals think the Banana Campus Boot would look good with dark jeans (tucked in and not)? I mainly wear dark jeans. I have bought and returned these boots twice now because I thought maybe it just didn't look good. But now I am looking to you for opinions. I just love the color, reminds me of college when we all wore the Banana Campus Fryes! (MANY moons ago!) Of course, though, our jeans were tattered and bleached back then...

Sorry I don't have mod pics, but thought I would see if you could picture it.

I think they would look awesome with dark denim!

Thanks In2themystik2 for such a thorough and great advise! I would love to see some of your pics sometime. Where have you seen people talking about dye jobs, is there a separate thread? I have FRYE billy pull on in clay, which I bought at the same time as this one on sale. Love that one and have been wearing it all the time. It is a cowboy boot, so I always wear it with girly dresses to reduce the masculinity. The look is cute etc but I can only do that look spring/fall that is only 2-3 times a season. Have been thinking about dyeing it to a darker color so that I can wear it with pants too.

Have you considered getting fleece tights so you can wear your skirts and dresses in the winter too? That's how I am wearing my Carmens! It's not easy for me to find skinny jeans that fit me properly, and I keep wanting to wear my Carmens but they only fit under very wide legged jeans (which I do have, but I always want my Carmens visible, you know?). Fleece tights are the bomb!

Thanks dragonette for mentioning fleece tights! they are my fav too I wear them all the time with sweater dresses, long tops etc. But I have only found them so far in dark colors mainly black, I can imagine how gorgeous your carmines might look with them but for clay boots it will be too much contrast. But thanks to you guys here for inspiring me, I will try more outfits with it.

I just want to say, THANK YOU to all the wonderful people in this thread! You all are so nice and I will definitely be staying and posting here. It's so nice to know there is actually a sub-forum on TPF that I can go to and ask questions and be acknowledged and not ignored. (I did break my vow to not post on anymore threads though. This morning I posted on two threads in the "Animalicious" sub-forum and will probably regret it, for more reasons than one. Oh well...)
Thank you too for your help with my Frye questions and for welcoming me into the Frye family here. PLEASE keep posting pics of those beautiful boots too!

Congrats on your eBay victories! The olive is so gorgeous on the Harness boots. Post pictures when you get them!

Oh I know I have been stalking a pair of Olive forever and have not been able to find one anywhere. One finally showed it's face on ebay and I believe its actually the belted harness, so I was scared to get it for fear it wouldnt be the olive I was wanting, and I would be sad but I think I kind of like the fact that its even more difficult to find this one...hahaha

 

[piperbaby]

ohhh sorry thats so big...and why is the other one so small? eeks

Hi! I just saw your post. I have mentioned dyeing my Fryes a couple of times on this thread. I use myshoehospital.com and they do an excellent job.

I'm glad you reconsidered and are staying Collie! There are lots of nice people here. The Frye thread is one of my favorites; I check it regularly. I just became a Frye addict in November when my ex-husband bought my first pair for me. I have since purchased 2 more pairs plus the Frye Chuka, a moccasin that is sooo comfortable. If you are looking for good deals, shoebuy.com and 6pm.com often has nice sales on Frye. Also ebay, I got my Cavalry's there, new in box. Frye has got me out of my Naot clogs that have been on my feet for 8+ years!! UNBELIEVABLE. I never would have dreamed I would not have a pair of Naot clogs on my feet everyday!

And I wore them shopping the next day!
